 1.      All 0xFF MAC addresses during bootup.

         The original implementation of mesh start was based on populating
         mesh start command using buffers used for command processing and
         sending this command to command task.

         Driver after firmware download waits for either FIRMWARE_READY
 (0x30)
         event or (in the absence of this event) 200ms.

         In the absence of FIRMWARE_READY event, this wait 200ms period
 (long
         enough to start all the tasks in firmware and finish up mesh start
         processing) everything worked fine as there was no conflict
 accessing
         command buffer, which is used for the driver commands.

         With FIRMWARE_READY event in place, driver issues GET_HW_SPEC
 (0x3)
         command, immediately after receiving this event. This sometimes
 caused
         incorrect command response due to overlapped use (by driver
 command
         and mesh start logic) of command buffers.
